"That just doesn’t happen in pro golf. It really doesn’t happen in professional sports period."

Chris, I think Lorena Ochoa is probably just as accommodating as Vijay - win or lose. Doesn't she always find time to visit with the grounds staff at each venue - whether she wins or not, among other acts of gratitude?

While I can't think of any other examples off the top of my head regarding athletes being good sports despite poor play (other than in Baseketball when 'Coop' signs some autographs for sick kids in an attempt to score with Yasmine Bleeth after the Beers lost in the finals (an old man like you has seen Baseketball, right?), I have to think there are scores of good guy athletes out there who know when the game is over they still need to be an ambassador for the sport.

That's wonderful that Vijay is remembered for his kindness by the volunteers, but what does that have to do with Tiger Woods getting buzz for his play???

You are quite the professional blogger or are you ????

Singh is ten times the man Woods is and probably twice the man Woods will ever be.

Judge, coming from you, that's not much of an endorsement !!! What a stupid comment- You can't
attack Wood's golf so you attack him as a human being !!!

You're one miserable excuse of a human being and ten times the idiot I thought you were !!!!!!!

Hey Small one, Your drawers are showing !!!!!!

Let's hope that the Universe doesn't give back that
which you put forth- if it does, you had better get longer drawers. ( especially in the rear)

I see that two members of the peanut gallery have chimed in. Gentlemen, if you weren't so involved in idol worship, you would see people as they actually are. Woods is the greatest golfer who ever lived, but that isn't synonymous with being a good person. I don't demonize him, but he has more than his share of flaws.

Anyway, how does Woods' large intestine look, you sycophants?

Small One, You think you have the power to demonize anyone, let alone Tiger Woods !!!! Do you really think that he knows or cares who the heck you are ?

You shouldn't mention nuts at all -peanuts or otherwise !!

I have read your pathetic ranting and ravings enough to know that you are one pathetic old man. Get a life !!!!!!!

Curtis,

You're an interesting "man." As a professional writer, I can tell you that generally only children and women use exclamation marks so liberally.

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not questioning your sexuality or anything. But maybe you are.

Judge - are your writings under a nom de plume?

Genuine question - I'm not being sarky.

Small One,
Ok , I'll be an interesting "man" if you'll continue to be a pathetic old "man".

Can one make a profession of hating" Tiger Woods" ?

Judge Smails, Funny how you fail to remember Vijay being banned from the Asian Tour for cheating. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe anyone has ever accused Tiger of the same.

Wendy,

No, my real name is perfect. However, here I use a nom de blog.

Blazer,

True, Singh has that blotch on his record, and I'm the last one to excuse such things. But there is something called redemption; thus, I proceed wisely and judge a person's life in its entirety, as opposed to characterizing someone based on one event or allegation. Moreover, what matters most is the here and now, and when Woods spews F-bombs on the course, it doesn't speak very well of him.

Curtisina,

I don't know where you got the idea that I was a bit long in the tooth, unless it was my profundity and wisdom that gave you that impression. Regardless, I can assure you that your judgment is in error. I'm a fine figure of a man, admired by other men and desired by women.

Hey Small One,
I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm not buying it !

You would be an old ass, even if you were 20. I'll
bet you that was at least 55 yrs. ago.

Never doubted it for one moment, Your Honour. I was simply curious as
many professional writers do use a different name to their real one.
Nom de blog was good.

Go get them Judge. Blazer you must be a petty beauracrat. Curtis your so hung up on age, a law suit is in order, but then again this old marine could spend 5 minutes with you in a back alley just to humble your punk mouth and rest assure it would be humbled.

Curtis,

How much do you want to bet?

You name it Small one and as for Blazer, who needs an alley? I'll see your old marine and raise you a middle aged
Seal !!!

If you're a seal, Curtis, your the kind that does tricks for fish.

Your as much a seal as John Daly. No, your just a yappy little puppy.

Ross,

There are probably fewer Navy Seals and ex-Seals than any other specialized unit in the US military.

I was in the USMC for more than four years, in the Marine reserve for better than thirty years, and a life member of the Marine Corps league.

I have never met anyone who was actually an active duty Navy Seal.

Yet now, a week rarely passes when some joker doesn't claim to be a Seal.

I call BS on Curtis.

Alex et. al, I have a somewhat different perspective. I'm fortunate to work around folks with backgrounds at both Centcom and Socom, so I actually HAVE met a number of both active and retired 'operators' - be they Delta, Seals, Marine Recon, Rangers, or USAF PJs.

Personal experience tells me almost none of them make any sort of public noise about 'what they did in the service' - except for perhaps a highty-sanitized 'memoir' or Marcinko's novels.

I'm not going to directly call BS on Curtis, just let the facts presented speak for themselves.
